Global Surface Disinfectant Market- Overview
Surface disinfectants are chemical agents used to inactivate or kill microorganisms like germs, bacteria, viruses, etc. present on the surface. Therefore, they are widely used in cleaning and disinfecting washrooms, floors, tiles, furniture, etc. Healthcare facilities like hospitals and clinics largely use surface disinfectants as they have to follow strict protocols of hygiene and sanitation for the prevention of any kind of hospital-acquired infections. These disinfectants are made up of various chemical agents like alcohol, phenol, chlorhexidine, ammonium, peracetic acid, etc.
Global Surface Disinfectant Market Forecast and Trends
Growth Drivers
Rising Prevalence of Hospital-Acquired Infections
Hospital-acquired infections are infections that a person acquires while visiting or staying at a hospital. Hospital-acquired pneumonia, Clostridium difficile infections, Central line-associated bloodstream infections, catheter-associated urinary tract infections, and surgical site infections, are some examples of these infections. Such infections are typically caused by viral, fungal, or bacterial pathogens. As a result, it is critical to clean and disinfect healthcare facilities with strong and effective disinfectants. Thus, disinfection has become even more important in the aftermath of COVID-19, when hospital visits have skyrocketed.
Expanding Healthcare Infrastructure in Developing Economies
Healthcare facilities, such as hospitals and clinics, are the primary end-users of surface disinfectants, which are in high demand in this industry. Developing economies like China, India, Brazil, South Korea, Russia, are making huge capital investments towards the development of healthcare infrastructure. As a result, the number of hospitals and other healthcare facilities is rising which is propelling the demand for surface disinfectants. Furthermore, the expanding medical tourism is also estimated to play a crucial factor in the growth of the surface disinfectant market.
Restraints
Negative Effects of Disinfectants on the Environment
The majority of surface disinfectants contain toxic chemicals that do not dissolve or degrade in water. Therefore, they end up polluting the soil and water bodies besides harming the environment. The most commonly used disinfectants, such as sodium hypochlorite, are highly effective against pathogens. Long-term exposure to such chemicals, on the other hand, causes health problems such as vomiting, nausea, and dizziness, particularly in cleaning personnel and patients. The excessive use of such strong chemicals also causes corrosion of surfaces and harms the building.
Impact of COVID-19 on Global Surface Disinfectant Market
The unexpected emergence of a novel coronavirus and its rapid spread shook the entire global healthcare system. Initially, in the absence of a vaccine or treatment, the World Health Organization issued a set of guidelines stating that the only thing the world can do right now to prevent the disease is to practice social distancing and maintain proper hygiene. As a result, the demand for surface disinfectants has increased dramatically. Disinfectants were already in high demand in healthcare facilities, but in the event of a pandemic, commercial and residential buildings emerged as potential end-users. Thus, the COVID-19 situation has created enormous opportunities for surface disinfectant development.
Global Surface Disinfectant Market - By Composition
Based on composition, the global surface disinfectant market is segmented into quaternary ammonium compounds (QAC), hydrogen peroxide, alcohols, peracetic acid, chlorine compounds, peracetic acid, and others. The quaternary ammonium compounds segment dominated the market with the highest market demand in the year 2020. The compounds are very popular cleaning agents and are widely used as disinfectants in the food industry. Due to its high effectiveness against bacterial biofilms, the demand for QACs is especially gaining traction in the healthcare industry.
